Dr. Saeed-Reza Sabbagh-Yazdi completed 1997. During his PhD he worked
on three dimensional finite volume solution of incompressible flow on
unstructured meshes using artificial compressibility method at Swansea
University (UK) .
He has been working as an academic staff of Civil Engineering Department
of K.N.Toosi University of Technology (Tehran, IRAN) since 1997 and was
promoted to Associate Professor. During of this period of time held
following executive positions :
-
Head of Student
Entrepreneurship and Talented Students Office in the university (from 2005) .
-
Deputy of education and coordinator of the postgraduate studies of
the university (2004 & 2005) .
-
Director of undergraduate student's office of the university (2003) .
-
Deputy of education and coordinator of the postgraduate studies in
Civil Engineering Department (2001 & 2002) .
-
Director of library of the Civil Engineering Department (1998-2000) .
He
lectured various courses on Fluid and Structural Mechanics as well as
Numerical Solution of Civil Engineering problems for B.Sc., M.Sc. and
Ph.D. students in Farsi and English. He has also supervised considerable
number of MSc and Ph.D. thesis .
-
Subjects taught for the under graduate students: Advanced Fluid
Mechanics, Design of Water Transport, Advanced Fluid Dynamics,
Advanced Hydraulics, Finite Element Methods, Computational
Hydraulics, Design of Hydraulic Structures, Numerical Methods in
Water Engineering and Structural Engineering (English course for
Kish-Monash Universities International program) .
- Subjects taught for the under graduate students: Fluid Mechanics II,
Static, Strength of Materials (I and II), Introductory Finite
Element Method and Static (English course for Kish-Sharif
Universities International program) .
During his individual research works and in collaboration with the post
graduate students, he extended his research work to numerical simulation
of following civil engineering problems :
-
Two and three-dimensional heat generation and transfer in gradual
construction of mass concrete structures .
-
Effects of cooling pipe system on cement heat generation and
temperature field of massive concretes .
-
Unsteady flow in pipes for
solution of pressure oscillations considering water hammer problem
in elastic pipe .
-
Two and three-dimensional ground water flow in heterogeneous and
anisotropic saturated foundation of gravity dams for computation of
uplift and see page .
-
Solute
intrusion in coastal confined and unconfined aquifers and effects of
underground dams .
-
Bed roughness effects in sub-critical open channels due to
geometrical complexities of free surface flow boundaries.
-
Turbulent depth average flow around various shapes of bridge piers .
-
Scouring

-
Erosion, deposition and transport of fine sediment in river
hydraulics .
-
Fine sediment transport and horizontal distribution in dam reservoir .
-
Tidal flow and solute transport in geometrically complex fields with
arbitrary shape islands (Persian Gulf) .
-
Lake flow considering river in flow, wind stresses and
rain-evaporation effects as well as coriolis acceleration due to
earth rotation (in Caspian sea) .
-
Oscillating free surface flow in geometrically irregular bottom and
boundaries with large wet and dry tidal flats .
-
Dam reservoir circulation considering stresses and rain-evaporation
as well as inflow and out flow from outlet and spillway .
-
Super-critical flow with shock waves in horizontal and sloping
chutes .
-
Air concentration distribution in spillway flow due to surface and
bottom aeration .
-
Two-dimensional flow due to gradual break of embankment dams .
-
Wind induced turbulent flow around storage tanks .
-
Air pollution transport and diffusion in complex flow fields (urban
environment) .
-
Structural deformation of hyper-elastic materials (just started) .
All
of the above mentioned numerical simulations have been developed by
application of cell centre or cell vertex (overlapping and
non-overlapping) finite volume method for solution of governing partial
differential equations of desired engineering problem on unstructured
meshes .
In
addition, he managed to supervise some research works using software
packages which use finite element and finite volume method for the
solution of engineering problems as :
-
Wind induced pressure load on a group of cooling tower shells .
-
Seepage trough embankment dam considering rapid draw down process
.
-
Three dimensional pressure flow in multi-branch penstocks .
-
Two and three dimensional flow around submerged gates- Structural
optimization of radial gates .
-
Three dimensional effects of cooling pipe system on cement heat
generation and temperature field of massive concretes .
-
Estimation of uplift and super and sub critical flow on structural
components of chute and stilling basin .
-

and stilling basin .
-
Three-dimensional flow around sequential spore dikes (to be
completed) .
The
details and results of the above mentioned topics and some other
research works completed using engineering packages are published in
several conference and journal papers .
He is
